March 25th 2016 – He Has Risen!

“He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.” (Matthew 28:6)

“For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.” (Romans 11:30-32)

Since I have been in ministry as an evangelist (sharing the gosple to others) I often hear these comon responses “God wouldn’t forgive me”,”So much has happened in my life, Ive gone too far” or this one “I got to straighten out my life before I accept Him”

God offers all of mankind His mercy. Anyone who will beleive on Him and ask for his forgiveness.

Who are we to put limits on His mercy? When we choose not to minister the Gospel to another, we do just that. The definition of mercy is to not receive what you deserve. As we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, let us remember that in no way did we deserve God’s merciful action. By no means did we merit Jesus’ suffering at the hands of the unrighteous and that He would bear the tremendous weight of our own sin on that cross. Through no power of our own, these events unfolded through the benevolent, merciful and loving Father which many want to push away. Let us commit ourselves to making sure that everyone hears God’s message of mercy to the broken. May all mankind hear the Gospel and make their choice. This Resurrection Sunday, we will not have a sunrise service. We will have a Son-Has-Risen service. On the other side of that breaking dawn, let us brace ourselves for our God given duties and make sure that the whole world hears. Please forward this today. SHARE HIS WORD.

Prayer:

Dear Father, Thank You for being my God of mercy. I believe that Jesus is alive and accept Him as Lord of my life. May I live only for You. Purify my heart with Your Truth and guide me in the way of Your will for my life. May I always do what is pleasing in Your sight. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

“Thank You Holy Father, for You are Merciful and Forgiving. Draw us to Your Throne of Grace, for You say, ‘ I desire MERCY over Judgement’. Thank You Lord Jesus for taking my personal sinful self and my Judgement upon YOURSELF, that You would die for me. And now we are free to truly worship Father because we are born of You in Anew Life in Your Risen Son Jesus forever. We praise You through CHRIST our SAVIOR. Amen.”
